The last lap (part two)
Ginger, Katie and Lanie were at the airport to meet me when I arrived at Springfield. Because my bags were coming in on a later flight we didn’t have to hang around waiting and could go straight home.
It was good to be back, I haven’t been here for eight months. All too quickly we had to head out to the airport again to pick up my luggage. We arrived to find the ‘plane had come in early, and the baggage collection area empty. A quick visit to the check-in desk was all that was needed to re-unite me with my clothes for the next few months and all my personal papers.
I kept my eyes open as long as possible but by ten pm I was more than ready for some sleep. Well, maybe not quite straight away.
